RELEASE NOTES FOR KOHA 3.2.10 - 3 December 2011 ======================================================================== Koha is the first free and open source software library automation package (ILS). Development is sponsored by libraries of varying types and sizes, volunteers, and support companies from around the world.

Releases beyond 3.2.10 are for security issues only and are not gauranteed. Highlights of 3.2.10 ====================== NOTE: This release is a security release. It is strongly recommended that users apply this upgrade immediately to production systems. If you are installing a new system, please use this version rather than earlier versions. System Requirements ====================== Changes since 3.0: * The minimum version of Perl required is now 5.8.8. * There are a number of new Perl module dependencies. Run ./koha_perl_deps.pl -u -m to get a list of any new modules to install during upgrade. Upgrades ====================== The structure of the acquisitions tables have changed significantly from 3.0.x. In particular, the budget hierarchy is quite different. During an upgrade, a new database table is created called fundmapping that contains a record of how budgets were mapped. It is strongly recommended that users of Koha 3.0.x acquisitions carefully review the results of the upgrade before resuming ordering in Koha 3.2.x.
